Book- A Kane

Andrea Kane is one of my favorite authors. I have not read this book yet as I am reading another book by this author.

Liked it even if...

I'll begin by saying that like many of the other reviewers I found part of the story very hard to believe. However, I did enjoy the book.The parts I had the hardest time with were with Julia Talbot (2nd grade teacher and highly educated) she is a favored teacher among her students. However, she is over emotional when it comes to one child in particular Brian (the mayor's son). I understand a caring teacher that wasn't the problem. The problem was that she was overly involved with this child before his problems ever surfaced. He wasn't from a broken home or anything so her attachment to him seemed odd. He seemed more like he should have been her child rather than the Mayor and his wife. Perhaps that is what I was supposed to take from the story I don't know. Then add in that we are told several times that she was educated very well and yet she is so naive. The boy is having problems so she automatically assumes he's being abused. This aspect of the story was way overblown. I don't want to give away the story so I won't add much about what the storyline is about simply that his family is going through some things and the boy doesn't understand. I do understand that she would be concerned she's his teacher and she notices changes. However, she's a teacher! She had to have more than one child in her class and this boy is the only one she's worried about. She starts asking questions, etc about what is going on at home. (Secrets of course) I believe she tells the Mayor's brother Connor Stratford later in the story she is a psychologist and yet she is very high strung about one boy. She's investigating what is going on with his family because she's worried about him. At no time did I ever feel that she was thinking as an educator or even a psychologist would. Had I not known otherwise I would have thought she was his mother/aunt/sister because of the concern she showed over him.Now my next issue is Connor Stratford the attractive corporate mogul brother of the Mayor Steven Stratford. He swoops into town to keep the problems the parents are hiding from the boy and Julia (even though they really are none of her business) under the rug via seducing her. She falls right in after a little banter. This woman who is highly educated and is supposedly looking after the best interest of the child is allowing him to sidetrack her at every chance he has. The reason I even mention it is that she is so set on finding out who is "Abusing" Brian. I found Julia very annoying and that she was jumping the gun about Brian. Now for the reason I gave the book 5 stars. The story is the story within about Mayor Steven Stratford, his wife Nancy, Brian and their family legacy of politics that Steven/Connor's father wants to lead Steven into. The underlying story is what takes the book on and allows it to fly out of the dull over dramatic effects of Julia searching for who's hurting Brian. Brian's having trouble because tensions at home have him misun

Andrea Kane is the best!

Andrea Kane is an excellent writer and I absolutely love reading her books. No Way Out is one of her best books. I love the characters and I had tears in my eyes and wished the story would never end. This is an excellent book and I recommend it to anybody who likes Andrea Kane or to someone who likes a good story.

No Putting This One Down!

This was a great read. I was hooked after the first couple of pages. The love everyone feels for Brian is clear, and the terror is felt through the pages when he turns up missing. I loved the way the characters were portrayed. Weaknesses were shown and each character had their own little battle, internally or physcially to overcome. Highly recommended! I could not put this book down.

Stark Suspense+Passionate Romance=Awesome Reading

Andrea Kane has created a sizzling intrigue and tossed in a red-hot romance involving the primary characters to make this page turner one of the best I've read this year.Julia Talbots seems to be a rather prim starchy teacher until she's thrown together with the uncle of one of her favorite 8 year old students. At the same time she's being seduced by the wealthy, handsome Conner Stratford, her life begins to take on frightening, life threatening tones that are connected to Conners powerful family. While Conners brother Stephen is being seemingly sucked in by powerful political ploys beyond his control his wife and son are tossed into a sea of danger.The reader is caught up in the intense attraction between Julia and Conner that burns up the pages as the threat to the Stanford family deepens then erupts, with Julia caught up in the crossfire. The story doesn't unravel either gently or quietly but rockets the reader into a fast paced thrill as the sexual tension between Julia and Conner quickly unfolds and the intrigue and suspense explodes. A must read for Kane fans and especially for readers who needs a break from frothy novels! You'll love this one.
